This is a PEAR2 thing, probably.
It seems rather a shame that although we have an <api> version tag in package.xml, you can't use it as a dependency. In some ways, *IF* this is being used properly, it would make more sense than a package version dependency. Certainly this is true in some circumstances.
Therefore, PEAR2 should perhaps support a dep something like this:
<required>
<package>
<name>Foo_Bar</name>
<min type="api">1.0.0</min>
<max type="api">1.0.2</max>
<recommended type="api">1.0.1</recommended>
</package>
</required>
(the implicit default "type" attribute for <min>,<max> etc. would be "packagever" or something)
